A boat game for 5+ age group!

I was never much of a game developer, but recently my 5 year old son wanted to play a game so we decided to build one together.

It's a boat game, you basically steer a boat in an isometric 2d world, transporting passengers, cargo etc between ports.

As we designed it, the ideas just kept on coming. He made or directed a lot of the art inside of the game (even the audio), and we included friends and family as characters within the game.

A lot of fun to build - hilarious at times. I used Lua and LÖVE2D, building basically a game engine for an isometric world, so that took significantly more time than expected.

If you want to test it [1], please do, but keep in mind it's only in Norwegian, but I am sure most people would be able to figure it out as it's meant for age group 5 and up:

At this point our entire extended family and their kids, grandchildren etc are actually playing this, so it's been super fun.
